This is Chris Redgrave for Zions Bank Speaking on Business.
The story starts in the African region of Mozambique. It was Arthur Morais' (more-ae-us) first home … until his family was forced to flee. He became a refugee who eventually found safe haven in the welcoming arms of the United States. The experience is one Arthur will always remember and has shaped his appreciation for all he now has, including his new business, Camelot Inn, located in Honeyville.
The Camelot Inn has five units to rent and is only two miles away from Crystal Hot Springs. Arthur built it from the ground up to provide a beautiful hotel experience for guests of the unique minerals springs, or anyone looking for a getaway, to enjoy. The name is a play on Arthur's own name, after King Arthur of the round table.
As a small business owner, Arthur was concerned about keeping costs for this beautiful new facility down, so he came up with an innovative way to handle things — a self-check in system. Customers arrive at the secure building with a code to get in, then once inside, they use a computer and credit card to check in. They love it, and there are plenty of cameras for Arthur to keep an eye on things, so he can resolve any concerns. This system is so efficient that Arthur's record so far is checking seven people in within just five minutes. And you won't believe the pricing!
Arthur will be the first to tell you about unique healing properties of Crystal Hot Springs he has personally experienced. He hopes others can have the same opportunity, which is why he wanted Camelot Inn to be built so close to the springs.
The city of Honeyville has been supportive of Arthur's new business venture, signing off on his proposed location and design. He likes to think of it as a Honeyville original.
Camelot Inn is designed to be a retreat where people can spend a few hours in the hot springs, then come back and relax in a comfortable hotel room. As for Arthur and his guests, they couldn't be happier.
